β¦ Synopsis
A quantitative method for the determination of less than 30 p.p.m. selenium in organic sulfur-containing drugs has been developed. The procedure utilizes oxygen flask combustion for decomposition of the organic matter and colorimetric measurement of selenium after reacting with 2,3-diaminonaphthalene, a specific complexing agent for selenium. At the level of 30 p.p.m., better than 90% recovery is obtained. The method is rapid, specific, and free from interferences.
